Tretyakov gallery is preparing an exhibition “Nenasala” about different the art of the Soviet era. Take a look there now for the first time.
– In these halls, while there was on the planet coronavirus, was the repair of the roof, — says the General Director of the State Tretyakov gallery Zelfira Tregulova.
To the roof to get even. But what a time of rethinking in the course of the pandemic has changed forever?
– of this country, may be, after the end of the pandemic involuntarily what happened so it’s worth and keep?
– actually we are very serious now working.
Kandinsky we saved. But, it turns out, there is a chance that some of the paintings in the Tretyakov gallery will be hung on-to another have always. But we will see what is left in their place?
Look at the “Oval in oval”.
– Call it still, for the sake of brevity a complex structure. And what is the complexity design will be when you finally open? It will be a different reality, different rules of visiting the Museum?
They will, of course, different, — said Tregulova.
When, as expected, on July 3, the gallery will again host visitors, for those who want to walk with audio guide headphones are disposable. All, without exception mask. You can buy on the spot.
– We now masks bought very cheap, much cheaper than the Moscow metro, — said General Director of the Tretyakov gallery.
– What you discover for yourself new questions found out these days?
– We will put a certain amount of people in sessions every 15 minutes. They will all keep your distance 1.5-2 meters. The tickets will be.
Between members of the same family, the distance test will not. The distance between visibly strangers will watch the custodians of the hall. But for them and for us there is good news.
Published by recommendation of the CPS. No one insists that each visitor was 20 square meters. This rule was discussed seriously, and then we would have had to greatly limit the visit — said Zelfira Tregulova.
Everyone in Tretyakovka will ask preferably to buy tickets contact — electronically. However, those who are in trouble with online, you need not worry.
– to Be opened on duty office, which will be equipped with all the things equipped with the cash register in the grocery and other stores — said Tregulova.
But it’s all technique. And what about the art?
Know the style front? A giant wall of Soviet times. And after inserting the Thaw is coming “Ninesigma”. But it will be different the Brezhnev era.
– How Brezhnev? Praise?
– No, not praised. In fact, he and the other makes the project group is relatively young curators – from 34 to 45 years for which this era is something that is already in the distance and it’s not like they’ve been through, what they have lived and passed through itself. So they can, in my opinion, more objectively, without nostalgia, but with a cold analytical look at this era and realize that, on the one hand, Yes, of course, this is an era of hopelessness, hopelessness, without any even a small ray of light at the end of the tunnel. But it is simultaneously the era when you could actually read almost everything that is possible, unless it was politically forbidden literature, — said Tregulova. The library of foreign literature was completed, thanks to the daughter of Alexei Nikolaevich Kosygin, therefore, we are not dreaming right now. Any book that you wanted, you could write interlibrary loan, and a month later she’ll come to either library of Congress or the National library in Paris. Today, this no longer. And I guess that explains why in the Brezhnev era, it would seem, when nothing was impossible, was very much. Believe me, it was only necessary to put at the beginning of his article a couple of quotes — one of Karl Marx, the other from Vladimir Lenin — and everything else you could be based on Jung, Freud, and Spengler and others, recognized bourgeois and wrong philosophers, art historians and so on. And it is thanks to this tension of the inner life have a limited number of people in the depths of the Brezhnev era there are two, perhaps the most important Russian artistic phenomenon of the late twentieth century: Sots-art and Moscow conceptualism.
– Sots-art is in one of the rooms?
– Yes.
– the other is religious mysticism. We show very much. Official art, all the rituals over which has my generation laughed. Seriously for Leonid Ilyich to take was impossible. The jokes were brilliant, we all had to tell.
Is the same era gave birth?
– Yes. Again, this is one of the options of care. Each room differs from another. If you go further, you’ll see a major difference in the design of each room. When you came out of the exhibition before you is a wall on which there is a remarkable fragment of the film “AssA” by Viktor Tsoi, who sings “Change, we want change”. I very well remember the premiere of this film in 1987, and what a breakthrough was the performance of Boris Grebenshchikov, the group “Aquarium” and so on. And we as if we move the bridge to the next project, which I hope will do a few years dedicated to the restructuring.
And that is still with the repair of the roof?
Here on remote will not work — it repairs.
– Certainly.
– But is in many organizations. If you can Tretyakov gallery called the organization.
– of Course, institution.
– good?
– Certainly.
– Will a certain number of people and leave the remote?
– to be completely honest, I’d like to put some people on remote. I see that many academic staff better works from home when you need concentration to write some texts — admitted Tregulova.
During these months, prepared a giant set everything in September will be presented online.
– a Classic of the genre?
– anything. And the most popular, and that nobody knew that we have it. For example, a stage set.
including the Soviet. Against what?
Is Lenin in the Smolny. The revolution has already happened. He is already there working on building structures. You have, I feel, in the moment, too, a revolution to a certain extent has happened. What do you recommend small museums who have not such wealth, such reservists and of such a system?
– I think today in a small Museum in the region there is a sufficient number of employees who can come up with some bright, interesting projects. For example, we are now seriously working on the creation of its branch in Samara, in the building of constructivism, which looks from above like the hammer and sickle. And it’s the Director and the entire team of local, Samara, I just sometimes have to “put out” and “put out” their creativity.
waiting, Waiting to open. In the capital both of the Tretyakov gallery — in July.
